Where did you go abroad and when did you go?

“I studied abroad in the summer of 2016 at the University of Stirling, Scotland.”


Why did you go abroad?

“I’ve always had a love for travel and exploration, as well as a passion for cultural immersion. I knew I wanted to combine my education with travel, so I spoke to my study abroad office and they helped coordinate a country and university that matched my educational goals.

I loved every minute of my time in Scotland. It gave me a new adventure every day and a group of lifelong friends with incredible memories.”


What advice do you have to give to anyone who is thinking about going abroad?

“For anyone considering studying abroad I cannot express in words how highly I recommend it. It’s difficult to put a value on the things that you’ll experience as you’re living and learning in another country.


Should you one day find yourself studying abroad, my advice would be thrust yourself into the country and its culture completely. Drop any expectations or preconceived notions of what your about to experience. Traveling has a way of bringing you new friends, food, ideas and amazing memories when you open yourself up to anything and everything your location has to offer.


Now head over to your study abroad office and get out there!”
